Really this is a 'what would you do' but with a teaching theme!
So since having my DS I work one day a week on a permanent contract and the other days I do some supply work
I am really not happy in the permanent job, I feel I do not have the time to do all the other things that go with a permanent contract (planning, assessment, subject leader, etc etc) and dread that day coming round each week (and the night before when I am trying to get the planning done and the night when I am shattered from the hassle of getting loads of things done before I go and a long drive there and back) I would really love to give this job up but DH is worried about the lack of security of supply work, especially the lack of pay over the holidays.
The other option is to take a TA job - I have found one that has more responsibility and pay than the usual TA job but it is 27.5hours a week.
So what would you do. Suck it up or bite the bullet!
